A symbol of changing norms for women

> 27-year-old Behnaz Shafiei has become a symbol of changing social norms for Iranian women. > Since women are required to follow a strict dress code in public, Shafiei tucks her dyedblonde hair neatly into her helmet to pre-empt any criticism > When she was 15 she fell in love with motorbike after watching a woman riding a motorbike in a village near Zanjan in northern Iran. > Women bikers are allowed to train on private circuits only six months ago. > A female-only track opened outside Tehran only a couple of months ago. > Around a dozen women that ride professionally in Iran.
